HP made a CRT monitor that had IR emitters and sensors aimed vertically and
horizontally. They had to be mounted pretty far forward to clear the curve of
the tube and resolution was very low. Software using it was limited to having
its active spots at the intersections of the emitter and sensor pairs lines of
sight.
They were crazy expensive in the 1980's, should be crazy cheap to build your
own now.

I've been thinking about how to implement a touch screen of sorts on a 19"
monitor. The TFT displays are too expensive for their size.

Very interesting, and with more scanners and LED's it could be very usable!
Next is to explore how easy it is to drive them.
